PROMART PRIVACY POLICY Last Revised: June 1, 2018
Protecting the individual’s privacy on the Internet is crucial to the future of Internet based business and the move toward a true Internet economy. SAP America, Inc.

This policy outlines our personal information handling practices for the ProMART application(s), website(s) and technology platform (collectively, the “ProMART Platform”).
